Question
Hi there I am sure you can answer this one.When will the Seven Last Plagues of revelation fall?And are there scriptural references that prove when it will happen.God bless and thanks...  

Answer
The Wrath of God is the Seven Last Plagues -

The entire body of Christ Jesus, throughout all ages, will all be in heaven from the Seventh TRUMPET (1 Thess.4:16-17).

Jesus delivers the church of God (1 Cor.10:32 – His living body, Col.1:24) from the wrath to come.  The church is not appointed to wrath and are saved from wrath through Him (1 Thess.1:10,1 Thess.5:9, Rom.5:9 below).

Directly after the Seventh TRUMPET, the wrath of God will be poured out.  Note Revelation 15:2 (below) - We see the very last of the body of Christ, those who gained the victory over the beast . . ., standing on the sea of glass in heaven, just before the Seven Last Plagues are to be poured out upon the earth (Re.15:1, Re.15:6-8, Re.16:1).

The heathen (Gentile – 1 Thess.4:5, Eph.2:12, 1 Cor.10:32) will remain upon the earth after the Seventh TRUMPET to face the wrath of God.  The wrath of God abides in those who do not believe on the Son (Jn.3:36 below).


1 Thess.1:10    And to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead, [even] Jesus, which delivered us from the wrath to come.

1 Thess.5:9    For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ,

Rom.5:9       Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him.

Re.15:2         And I saw as it were a sea of glass mingled with fire: and THEM THAT HAD GOTTEN (past tense) THE VICTORY over the beast (Re.13:1-2), and over his image (Re.13:14), and over his mark (Re.13:16), and over the number of his name (Re.13:17-18), stand on the sea of glass, having the harps of God.

Jn.3:36        He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him.
